I got it yesterday. When Bryan posted the 15% off Refurbished SLR coupon for Canon Direct, I had to. I also got the Vello battery grip for it from B&H. I spent yesterday evening customizing most of the settings that are important to me and played around with the camera a bit. Here was my first flickr post with it:Originally Posted by clemmb
You now have a 5D Mark II? When did you get it? I somehow missed that news

I was trying out the autofocus and seeing how the depth of field is different between it and my 7D. Oddly enough, it seemed to nail autofocus with my 85mm f/1.8 and 50mm f/1.4 lenses without any AFMA corrections (which surprised me). So far, I'm happy with the camera, but it certainly is a different animal to shoot with. I'm looking forward to giving it more of a workout this weekend.
